Robert K. Cheruiyot and Jelena Prokopcuka are the midway leaders in the World Marathon Majors (WMM). This series was inaugurated with the Boston and Flora London Marathons – held one week apart – earlier this year. It is an alliance of Boston, Flora London, real,- Berlin, The LaSalle Bank Chicago, and ING New York City marathons.

Competitors accumulate points in a maximum of four races over a two-year period, the eventual male and female winners taking equal shares of a $1,000,000 prize purse. Each two-year WMM season overlaps; the cycle is, therefore, 2006/2007, 2007/2008, 2008/2009, 2009/2010, etc. After 2007, the prize money is awarded at the end of each year.
